Grown one freebie LSD. Interesting plant.... it developed the worst most pungent paint thinner smell which disappeared eventually but the dried and cured weed wasn't special in any way. Tasted not too nice and the high was average at best. I've seen plenty of lsd grow reports and most of the guys were happy. I don't think it was my fault, the other plants in this grow were pretty good. Maybe it was some strange pheno. So that's my own experience with BF.
It seems that every new grower who only looks at the attitude website and the glossy weed magazines ends up with BF and GHS on their first few grows. Of course you can be lucky and it would be hard to exclusively produce shit seeds. Maybe there are a few strains which are ok or maybe even that tangerine dream freebie you get from the attitude at the moment is this one cup winning pheno. But i don't have the resources to waste on strains most growers had no luck with and spend a bit more time researching the forums. One pretty safe sign for example is that there is no 500 page Barneys Farm or GHS thread in any forum. These threads are usually up to 5 pages and end in some kind of basic 'disagreement'. But there is a Bodhi thread with thousands of entries. Or a Gage green thread, Sannies, TGA, Cali Connection etc. Before i spend money on seeds i want to see some good results from different growers. And again, you will find plenty of pictures of reputable breeder's gear but not so much from the BF or GHS front.
So go ahead and spend your hard earned money on something with such a negative reputation. Perhaps you will be lucky and find something nice. But if your seeds won't germ, the seedlings die or whatever people reported here about their BF experiences don't say you haven't been warned.
think they waited a lil to late tho as GG4 is the best thing right now
thank you all for the input
) Big Buddha Cheese, the sweet cheese had the most compact white tops (very impressive!) while the Dynafem and Barneys seeds had fluffy tops with lots of small leafs in it but very good tasting (fresh mint cheese). The dynafem and barneys plants look and taste very similar could be the same seeds as far I am concerned. I know these commercial seeds are expensive but still worth to grow, if I needed to grow professionally I would not brother using seeds at all.
